Guest guest Posted July 20, 2001 Report Share Posted July 20, 2001 Some time ago, I decided not to reply to these<br>many boring posts concerning insulting other people, other forums, ... For me that was the best way to deal with such a huge demonstration on non-yogic behaviour. Nevertheless, sometimes it feels good to contribute.<br>It's funny how much energy (oh, I used the E-word) is wasted for this, that could be used for so many more valuable things.<br>It's of absolutely now interest for me, how someone I know only by his more or less imaginative screen name thinks about another one whom I don't know either. And I'm not talking about warnings concerning teachers that are betraying or something like that. And it<br>probably is of no interest for most of you how I think about the posts of El Senor or omprem or shining skull...<br>I know, that it sometimes feels good to reduce stress if you anonymously write an offensive post. But does it really help?<br><br>So here's my tip of the day: try this yogic challenge for one week. Only read, don't answer stupid posts, better, don't judge them.<br><br>As I didn't wan't to start work, I preferred wasting some energy posting some uninteresting lines. But at least I'm not offensive.<br><br>May everyone be happy every day!<br><br>Namaste,<br>Dirk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 20, 2001 Report Share Posted July 20, 2001 << And it probably is of no interest for most of you how I think about the posts of El Senor or omprem or shining skull... >> <br><br>Dirk - but since you mention my name in your post, it would be of interest to me what you think about my posts, so that I may have the possibility to reply.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2001 Report Share Posted July 20, 2001 Dear Shining Skull,<br><br>send me an email, and I will tell you the naked truth :-)<br><br>Kanpai,<br>Dirk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 20, 2001 Report Share Posted July 20, 2001 Dirk - As a matter of fact, I don't email with anyone here - that's my personal choice. But please, feel free to tell the naked truth on this board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 20, 2001 Report Share Posted July 20, 2001 Dirk - I am not here to make friends (I don't believe in online friendships). I don't try to be popular either - I just tell "the naked truth" from my personal point of view, and everything I put out here is intended to be my own personal opinion only, like it or not. As to Senor's posts - they may not be everybody's cup of tea, but the impression I've got of him is that he's merely trying to say the obvious. Or not? And I don't say this only to please him, as you might be thinking. Omprem's posts: isn't he just trying to defend himself from one insult after the other by an individual posting here under X different identities?<br><br>EZboard - I read it almost every day, but I don't post there because I like to put my messages on ONE message board only. Just another personal choice of me. And sincerely, it offends me if someone from the other board comes over here to say that reading posts here is his daily 30-minutes soap opera. Then they say we are the ones who keep talking badly about EZboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 20, 2001 Report Share Posted July 20, 2001 I have to respect that, altough I usually prefer email when only two parties are concerned, so other people don't get bored by these one-on-one communications.<br><br>But let me say this, although some of your posts sound a bit "Oberlehrerhaft" I like most of them because I think you try to give useful information most of the time.<br><br>Have fun and don't take too much things (and posts) too serious. As I wrote, sometimes I only post to have fun too.<br><br>Namaste,<br>Dirk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very sorry if it hurts. I luv y'all. You're my online Ridge Forresters, Brooke Logans, J.R. Ewings, and Carringtons.<br><br>Relax. Yoga is best with a smile (even through the pain).

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2001 Report Share Posted July 22, 2001 I always wonder... how do others see the sarcasm where others just get offended. <br><br>Sorry for the clutter - this is my last post on the subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 22, 2001 Report Share Posted July 22, 2001 sarcasm? what's that? is it contagious? <br><br>chill out baldy, i was just messin' with ya. you'll never survive this little soap opera if you give in that easy, just ask ss. <br><br>remember the true meaning of ahimsa and satya:<br><br>ahimsa = always give better than you get.<br>satya = always have the last word.<br><br>(right senor?)<br><br>namaste,<br>m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 22, 2001 Report Share Posted July 22, 2001 Waste? Better to skip your posts than to read them. All pre-tenses aside, everyone should ignore you, no matter how many "spiritual" terms you bandy about. And if that's the true meaning of ahimsa, better to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Time waster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 22, 2001 Report Share Posted July 22, 2001 oh yeah? well let me tell you something buddy... <br><br>oh wait. you're right. never mind.<br><br>love,<br>m<br><br>p.s. you were suppossed to skip this message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 23, 2001 Report Share Posted July 23, 2001 I did and if it were longer I could skip even more. Back to yoga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
